Word War Too

Word War Too

The Maginot Line defences.
Semantics under attack.
Stormtroopers, armed with wrong tenses,
Phonetically firing flak.

Blitzkrieg by poetical panzers
- War of alliteration -
Overran traditional stanzas.
Grammatical capitulation.

Apostrophe escapes for freedom!
Metaphor sentenced to death.
'yphenation - dropped an aitch - bomb.
Tortured vowels gasp for breath.

Nuremberg trials of comprehension,
Heinous literary crimes.
The Geneva Book Convention
Should ban such barbarous rhymes.
